President-Elect Donald Trump received a sentence from a New York judge today: unconditional discharge. There will be no fine, imprisonment, or other penalty in the case, which claimed that he had falsified business transactions regarding mis-categorized expenses. Trump will appeal the conviction.
“The Radical Democrats have lost another pathetic, unAmerican Witch Hunt,” Trump posted on Truth Social. “After spending tens of millions of dollars, wasting over 6 years of obsessive work that should have been spent on protecting New Yorkers from violent, rampant crime that is destroying the City and State, coordinating with the Biden/Harris Department of Injustice in lawless Weaponization, and bringing completely baseless, illegal, and fake charges against your 45th and 47th President, ME, I was given an UNCONDITIONAL DISCHARGE. That result alone proves that, as all Legal Scholars and Experts have said, THERE IS NO CASE, THERE WAS NEVER A CASE, and this whole Scam fully deserves to be DISMISSED. The real Jury, the American People, have spoken, by Re-Electing me with an overwhelming MANDATE in one of the most consequential Elections in History…”
